Welcome to this quintessential historic Craftsman bungalow, perfectly situated on a picturesque corner lot at the edge of Historic Oakwood. This beautifully preserved home seamlessly blends timeless character with modern comforts, featuring shingle-gabled ends, exposed rafter tails, and charming 4-over-1 wood windows that honor its rich heritage. Recent updates, including a brand-new roof and complete exterior painting in November 2023, enhance its lasting beauty. Inside, 10-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, and elegant plaster walls create warm and inviting living spaces, while the original fireplace, now with a gas insert, offers a cozy focal point. A partially floored attic and an unfinished basement—complete with interior access and a separate walk-out entrance—present excellent storage or expansion opportunities, with an architectural sketch available for an additional bathroom. Outdoor living is a dream with a welcoming front porch, a private screened-in back porch, and a rear brick patio, all set within a wood-fenced backyard. A paved driveway provides ample parking for three vehicles, while mature trees, lush plantings, and vibrant shrubbery complete this serene oasis.

Nestled in the heart of Historic Oakwood, this home offers an unparalleled blend of charm, character, and urban convenience. Oakwood is renowned for its tree-lined streets, stunning 19th- and early 20th-century homes, and strong sense of community. Residents enjoy proximity to Oakwood Commons and Oakwood Park, where walking trails and green spaces provide a peaceful retreat. The neighborhood is also known for its vibrant local events, including the annual Candlelight Tour, which showcases beautifully preserved historic homes during the holiday season. With its close-knit atmosphere and charming architecture, Oakwood remains one of Raleigh’s most sought-after historic districts.

Located just moments from downtown Raleigh, this home places you within walking distance of some of the city’s best dining, shopping, and entertainment options.
